This week the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) is having its annual meeting in Boston. Attending the ASHG annual meeting is about more than just presenting our work, it’s one way we are working to ensure that the 23andMe® Research Institute contributes to a healthier future for everyone.
- Amplifying impact: Sharing our discoveries with a global audience helps our work reach those who can build upon it, accelerating the path from discovery to clinic.
- Fostering collaboration: It’s where we connect with the brightest minds in the field. These conversations spark new ideas and forge partnerships that are essential for tackling complex diseases.
- Staying on the cutting edge: Exposure to the latest technologies and unpublished data keeps our research relevant and innovative.
